The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 3-story two-family home built in 1901, on a 843 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–3Homes2 homes are recorded on this lot — about one home to a floor, and the apartments assessed on this block run to a typical 1,025 sq ft (95 m²). The city does not publish which floor any of them is on.
  2. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as one and two family homes.
  • Street levelOne and two family homes
  • Homes2 recorded · typically 95 m² · valued $435,832
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 7 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 18.3 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 8.6 m over 3 floors, as the city counts them. 2 runs of floors have something on record. The city publishes a roof height and a storey count for the lot, and nothing at all about any individual floor. What stands to the south is measured from the city’s own footprints and roof heights; it is a statement about the skyline, not a calculation of sunlight.

Housing violations

1 violation is open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code.

  • 0Immediately hazardous
  • 0Hazardous
  • 0Non-hazardous
  • 1Information order

Open means the Department of Housing Preservation and Development has not recorded it as corrected, which is not the same as nobody having fixed it. The city publishes the apartment each was written against; that is not carried here, because a count says a building has a problem and an apartment number says whose.

The apartments

108 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 1,025 sq ft (95 m²). They run from 49 to 214 m².

The city values the typical one at $435,832. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.

What it sold for

26 apartments on this tax block changed hands in the year the city last published, at a median of $4,257,180, from 739,888 to 4,386,490.

Recorded sale prices from the Department of Finance’s rolling file, covering the year to Aug 31, 2026. Transfers under $10,000 are left out: New York records deed transfers between relatives at a dollar, and those are not sales. No apartment number and no name is carried from either side.

Owner of record

ROMEO FAMILY TRUST

As the assessment roll records it. Only owners that read as a company are shown here; where the roll names an individual, nothing is published.

Lot facts come from NYC Department of City Planning, Primary Land Use Tax Lot Output (PLUTO) (64uk-42ks), accessed Sep 17, 2026. They describe the tax lot, not any single filing. When the rest of New York went up

Read from the brokerages’ own published listings on September 21, 2026. A home drops off this table the next time they publish a list without it — usually because it sold or let, though a listing can also expire or be withdrawn. What we know is that it is no longer offered, which is why this shows what they have today rather than what we were told once. Everything on the market across the city.

Violation record

Are there open violations here?

No open violations are recorded for this building.

Open means the agency has not recorded a resolution, which is not the same as the problem still existing. What a violation is, and what it is not. From NYC Department of Buildings, DOB Violations (3h2n-5cm9), accessed Sep 14, 2026.

What is recorded here

Multiple filings, one stable building identifier.

New York City's Building Identification Number helps connect filings that may use different application numbers or describe different scopes of work. The records below are grouped because they publish BIN 3068948. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.

The matched set includes 2 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 2 approved. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
